Local weather affects which walls can be filled. Worcestershire has a mix of moderate and more exposed sites. Hilltop, coastal and west-facing walls take the brunt of wind-driven rain, so the survey records exposure for each elevation before a material is chosen.
In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Evesham, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
